Hello,
Check out with your dermatologist to find out the cause for these whitish discoloration. Skin color can be regained in stable vitiligo with the help of medications and surgery. If medications given by your dermatologist proves to be ineffective then transfer of melanocytes or pigment producing cells can be done to the area of vitiligo to regain normal color to the skin. However, the eyebrows would not change color in this surgical technique. In fact, there is no cure to change in eyebrow color andyou should only resort to artificial dyes to color the whitish hairs.
